Our friend the mantis shrimp is a TV star. ABC news had about a 2 minute spot on the mantis last night, crowning it the planet's best power puncher. In the way that only TV can, they basically theorized that a mantis the size of a human would kick any Olympic boxer's butt since it would pack the power of one of the USS Missouri's 16 inch guns (really). Most interesting to me though, was a UC Berkeley marine biologist's statement that one once broke the glass on his aquarium. Hmmmm.
